    If so, it can't be as bad as this guy. I ran across it as I was reading about the Palmeiro fiasco. Mr. Pound chairs the World Anti-Doping Agency and appears to be a pretty decent guy. No disrespect towards him. I'd just hate to have the name.

    "Dane" is looking better by the minute!

    Here are some people that went to my high school. I thought their names were cool.

    In Hurr (sp?)
    Sida Wang - still know this guy, goes to my university
    Sung Oh - The teachers would always read our last names first so they'd say "Oh Sung." And then he'd say "Oh Sung, oh Sung!!!"

    Most people who don't know me are afraid of making fun of my first name on account of my last - they might end up buried in the desert or served as dessert with some fava beans and a nice chanti. :D

    I disliked my name growing up. My parents called me by my middle name. Tillman is my first name, after my late grandad. When I was in my 20s I asked my grandma if she'd mind if I went by Tillman, and with her blessing I switched to it. It took about 2 years to break my parents into it :D

    I dont have a problem. Other people have one pronouncing it in.

    Leave it to the Irish to have 'Mc' pronounced "Mac" and 'Mac' to be pronounced 'Mc'. To drunk to realize i guess

    My last name is buchan, pronounced buk-an.. an its scottish..
    yeh there have been alot of jokes about it, i actually respect people that dont crack those jokes, becuase its not exactly an origninal pay out is it, or like i've never heard that one before.. nothing like a smart A$$ to come up with those pay outs..

    Funniest name i heard at my school though, was brandy holder..

    I do love my name Jeremiha, but I have rarely met a person who doesn't sing me "Jeremiha was a bullfrog". The worst is when people then ask if I have ever heard the song. "Nope, thanks for introducing me to it."

    Always liked my name, just not the spelling of it. Its spelt "Shaan" but people always say it like "Shane" or "Shahn" when its actually the same as "Sean" or "Shawn"

    .. My last name is Ho... middle name is Dat.. first name Andy.. Put it all in order and you can see how easy of a target I was! Especially in middle school!!! Even the teachers would stress my last name when they take attendence.

    But after the first few weeks of school and becoming friends with my classmates I learned to love my name, it would kind of define me. It gave me some interesting knick-names as well. Even now i'm called "Ho-Man" by a few of my friends.

    Now when I meet new people and they learn my name it turns into a nice little conversation.
